So does a big shit, so that's hardly a good judge of quality.

"For some of us, games never got better than Goldeneye"
We were there in February, maybe ten days after the inauguration. My girlfriend had just come back from the march in DC, we were both having a tough time accepting the reality of our new President, and figured Disneyland was an ideal place to escape the trappings of real life, even if only for a day.
Probably not, but like the source book, it could make a nice companion piece to the original film.
Wonder Woman struck me as a movie that should/could have been much better, like Pixar's more notable films that appeal to more than just a narrow demographic. A lot of this review focuses on Cars 3's inability to do the same.
Replace the names and specific plot details, and this could serve as my review of Wonder Woman.
Yeah, everyone had a good time, and I'm sure the administration knew a rock band of some kind would be performing, but considering the band was called "The Cramps," and their signature style was to turn every lyric (be it their own or from classic rock/country) from "suggestive" to "filthy filthy down-n-dirty…
The Cramps swindled their way into a gig at a mental institution. Not only would I have loved to attend that show, I would have loved to attend the meeting wherein said show was booked. How? How the fuck did that happen?
heh, "bosom"
My favorite Wheeler/Spiner moment:
It's amazing what movies can do, isn't it?
Ahhh, don't be sorry. It was a bad time, but frankly life got better for both of us as soon as we divorced.
I have a really weird association with "Crouching Tiger." My then-wife and I saw it together at a time when our 1.5-year marriage was clearly failing. Within a month or two, we were separated and on our way to a divorce; but at that point, we weren't doing much more than quietly resenting each other's company.
Damn near!
For as funny as this movie was (and still is,) one of my favorite moments isn't even a joke. It's the scene of Powers sitting alone in a bathrobe, watching a video of notable world events that he missed out on while frozen. The expression of amazement and disbelief Powers gives in reaction to seeing the Berlin Wall…
It's a film that desperately wanted to be a white trash Wes Anderson joint, but couldn't get past the "trash" part.
I'm at work now, so there's no time for a big list, but here are a few examples:
On its own, the "dodge this" line is a Scratchy's ribcage type of complaint. The thing is, the entire movie is chock full of those moments. From the opening scene onward (especially on second viewing,) the film bombards you with lines or actions that contradict the core concepts of the film. Under normal…
I agree that the movie has a fun sense of humor about itself in some of the dialogue and deadpan acting (I agree that "I know kung fu" is an intentionally funny line) but the "you can't die because I love you" shit was 100% authentic. Everything in the writing, acting, framing, editing, music, etc tells the viewer…
Problem is, the people who might want to pull the plug on a bad idea are overseen by people who don't care if it's a bad idea when that idea is sure to generate a lot of press.
